MTL - Dawn of the Grey Tower-Chapter 118 Dragon's Contract
The sound of the trumpet echoed across the land before sunset. This time the noise is no longer only heard by Migo. Without adding dragon blood, the Dragon Calling Flute has become another magic item that is quite convenient to use in Cheese's hands.
Maybe it should not be called the dragon flute now, because its function is not limited to calling the dragon, but the cheese is not in a hurry to name it. There are still many magic items that can be adjusted and improved in a hurry. places, he intends to wait until these are completed before making a decision.
The melodious tone lasted for about ten seconds, and Cheese, who put down the horn, did not change his face, because what was needed to sound the horn was not air, but magic power. The released tone is a signal to recall Uni, and when the apprentice hears the teacher's call, he will return immediately. And this also means that the deal between the cheese and the Golden Dragons has been negotiated.
Jinlong is indeed a powerful opponent on the negotiating table. Their quick thinking makes it difficult to find logical loopholes, and they can even quickly absorb and digest cheese tactics to fight back.
Jinlong, who was impatient with the Red Dragon issue, was surprisingly calm during the negotiation. If Cheese did not intend to promote progress, this negotiation might be delayed for many days. Some things can only be resolved as soon as possible or the tail can't be lost. The latter is obviously more beneficial to the dragon.
Not knowing the gray-robed mage is not completely useless. As a nominal employer, his initiative lies in his understanding of the situation. No matter how long he left the Northland, he was more familiar with Xigu City than Jinlong, and he was more aware of the geography of the entire Cangshi Kingdom.
Even if he recalls carefully, he can vaguely use the information about the economic situation of Valley City in the corner of his memory, plus his own calculations and calculations, to list the city's current output capacity and affordability.
Relatively speaking, Sister Olga can only imagine her upcoming workplace through the mage's narration.
This is supposed to be an overwhelming advantage. Knowing the situation during the negotiation will turn the situation into a one-sided crush, because not knowing means being manipulated and fooled by others, and even has no regard for the other party's seemingly concessions. aware.
But the dragons have the greatest support, themselves. If you want to compare them, they are like craftsmen with unique skills, warriors with unparalleled combat capabilities, and their role in the corresponding field is irreplaceable and irreplaceable. If you fool them wantonly, then the other party only needs to break the contract. .
That's right, break the contract. Unlike the mutual help contract reached with Migo at the beginning, Olga cleverly rejected Cheese's proposal to use magic to establish a consensus, and only allowed the contract between the two to be recorded in written form. Although contract magic was already weak on the giant dragon, they still chose not to take any risks.
This almost unwarranted tough stance gave Cheese a lot of trouble at the beginning of the negotiation. When you have no way to control the two young and impulsive dragons, it is definitely not wise to take them back to their homeland.
Surprisingly, when the cheese showed that it wanted to suspend further negotiations, Jana's disappointment was quite obvious. This made the gray robe realize that what he was providing had another layer of value to the golden dragon, the value that allowed them to go far away.
Sounds weird doesn't it? Giant dragons have unparalleled wings, and their flying speed exceeds most of the vehicles in the world. They can go wherever they want, nothing can stop them, nothing can threaten them.
But is there any difference in such a scene? When you look down from the sky, the mountains and seas are just patches of different colors, and human elves are just spots of different shapes that can move and shout. They are meaningless and contactless, and naturally they will not bring touch.
Dragons live above this world, and this is not just a metaphor, their way of life is like this, away from other creatures, not involved in any worldly disputes.
The world has nothing to do with them. People fear and worship dragons, but dragons can't understand them. They are passers-by outside the fence, watching the lives of people inside the fence but unable to enter.
That's not really understanding the world outside the territory, especially for young dragons who haven't had the patience to observe, different scenery is meaningless, and someone needs to take them in.
Just like the character who guides the protagonist in a fantasy story, the current Cheese is the guide of the Golden Dragon Sisters. He is the hub of communication between dragons and people. He can stand calmly in front of the dragon and talk like him. Not many.
Crowds of humans are often killed by giant dragons, and solitary humans will make them curious. In fact, this is the case. Dragons want to walk through the door that is too narrow for them, and see the tiny ants How they spend their short lives can give them a good diversion in their long lives.

"Teacher." It was Yoni's first close encounter with a dragon, and the child was terrified after transforming back into human form. Cheese comforted the apprentice, and by the way, let Pinwei, who had been on standby in the river, come into contact with concealment. At this point in the deal's finalization, Jinlong should not suddenly become violent.
"It's okay, go to rest first, we will be on the road again soon." The gray robe patted the apprentice's shoulder to reassure him, and then began to search for items that could be used as a deposit for the dragon from the luggage.
"Let's say it first, we won't allow anyone to climb on our back." Jana's eyes locked on Youni and Pingwei, and there was a bit of surprise in her eyes, but her thoughts immediately turned to other issues. Being ridden by humans is still a shame in most dragon eyes.
"Don't worry, I will make a useful hanging basket, which will be more friendly to people who have not traveled long distances on the back of a dragon."
Riding a dragon is not like riding a horse. The tension will not fade with time and habits. When a long-distance trip is required, not only Youni and Pinwei need a hanging basket, but even Cheese himself has to rest in it.
And with the experience in building the empty boat of the City of Laws, he can also improve the simple barrel structure in the past, so that the passengers inside and the giant dragon holding the basket can be more comfortable.
"Whatever you want, we have to go back to the territory to deal with some things first. Two days later, we will gather here and set off. Remember, it is impossible for you to sneak away."
Olga, who pressed the contract, reminded in a gentle tone that the golden dragon's glasses can monitor a vast sky, and Migo really can't take off without being noticed when they are already on alert.
"Please don't worry, I never have that plan." Although the price is high, the two golden dragons can still change many things. Now that they have met, Cheese has no intention of letting go easily.
